The document discusses our evolving understanding of the solar system. It describes how the Ptolemaic theory that the Earth was the center of the universe was disproven by Copernicus' theory that the sun is at the center. While we once believed there were nine planets, Pluto is now defined as not meeting the criteria to be classified as a planet. The moon landing in 1969 marked a pivotal moment that advanced technology and space exploration, demonstrating what is possible through determination and hard work.

Heliocentric vs Geocentric models
This is a PowerPoint presentation about the difference between the geocentric and heliocentric models
Geocentric and heliocentric model
The document compares the geocentric and heliocentric models of the universe. The geocentric model, developed by ancient Greek and Roman astronomers, placed Earth at the center with all other objects orbiting around it. The heliocentric model, proposed by Copernicus during the Scientific Revolution, correctly placed the Sun at the center with Earth and other planets orbiting around it. While the geocentric model was developed early on, the heliocentric model provides a more accurate description of the motions in our solar system.
2018 2019 geocentric theory model vs heliocentric theory model revised
The document compares the geocentric and heliocentric models of the solar system.
1) The geocentric model, proposed by Aristotle, placed Earth at the center with all other celestial bodies revolving around it. 2) Copernicus proposed the heliocentric model, which placed the Sun at the center with Earth and other planets orbiting around it. 3) Galileo provided evidence supporting the heliocentric model through astronomical observations with his telescope, though he was condemned by the Catholic Church for his findings.
Geocentric vs. Heliocentric Models
The document compares the geocentric and heliocentric models of the solar system. The geocentric model, proposed by Ptolemy, placed Earth at the center, which was believed by the Catholic Church. The heliocentric model, proposed by Copernicus, correctly placed the Sun at the center. Evidence like seasons, Galileo's telescope observations, Kepler's laws of planetary motion, and Newton's theory of gravity supported the heliocentric view, though the Catholic Church originally opposed it.
World Changers in Early Space History
The document discusses several scientists from history who changed understandings of the universe, including:
- Aristotle and Ptolemy, who supported the geocentric model of the universe centered on Earth.
- Copernicus, who developed the heliocentric model placing the Sun at the center, explaining planetary motion and expanding the size of the universe.
- Tycho Brahe and Johannes Kepler, with Kepler using Brahe's observations to discover elliptical planetary orbits and laws of planetary motion.
- Galileo Galilei, who supported Copernicus' theory and was placed under house arrest by the Catholic Church for his scientific findings.
P1 topic 1 - Changing Ideas About The Solar System
The document discusses changing models of the solar system. Originally, the geocentric model held that Earth was at the center of the universe with all other celestial bodies orbiting it in perfect circles. Copernicus introduced the heliocentric model in 1543, placing the Sun at the center. Galileo later provided evidence supporting this, observing Jupiter's moons orbiting it rather than Earth. Modern understanding is that planets follow elliptical, not perfectly circular, orbits around the Sun.
Copernican revolution
This document summarizes the Copernican Revolution and the transition from the geocentric to heliocentric model of the solar system. It describes how Copernicus proposed that the Sun, not Earth, is at the center of our solar system. Later, Kepler discovered that planets orbit the Sun in ellipses rather than perfect circles, with the Sun at one focus through his analysis of Brahe's astronomical observations. Newton later explained Kepler's laws through his law of universal gravitation. This transition established the modern scientific view of our place in the universe.
Geocentric vs heliocentric
The document discusses geocentric and heliocentric models of the solar system. The geocentric Ptolemaic model placed Earth at the center, while Copernicus proposed a heliocentric model where Earth and planets revolve around the sun. Copernicus developed his model through observations that found inaccuracies in the Julian calendar. Galileo later provided experimental evidence supporting Copernicus' model, though the Church condemned his findings and tried him for heresy.

CA 3.05 Copernican Revolution
Nicholas Copernicus proposed a revolutionary heliocentric model of the solar system where the Sun, not the Earth, was at the center. In 1543, just before his death for fear of persecution, Copernicus published his book "On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres" which put forth his heliocentric theory. Though it contradicted the widely accepted geocentric model of Aristotle and Ptolemy, Copernicus' proposal that the planets revolved around the Sun was a major breakthrough, though not fully accepted until improved upon later.
What is the difference between geocentric and heliocentric
The geocentric theory states that the Earth is at the center of the universe and all other celestial bodies revolve around it. The ancient Greeks like Aristotle supported this view. Ptolemy later revised the geocentric model so the planets moved in smaller circular orbits within larger ones. Copernicus proposed the heliocentric theory, which placed the Sun at the center with planets revolving around it. Galileo later provided evidence supporting the heliocentric view by observing the phases of Venus and Jupiter's moons orbiting something other than Earth. The heliocentric theory is now accepted as describing our solar system.
Copernicus theory
Nicolaus Copernicus was a 16th century astronomer who formulated a heliocentric model of the universe where the Sun, not Earth, is at the center. This contradicted the geocentric Ptolemaic model that had been accepted for over 1,000 years. Copernicus published his theory in 1543 just before his death, placing the planets in correct order and arguing they revolve around the Sun. While his model was more accurate, it was controversial and faced resistance from the Roman Catholic Church for centuries until gaining broader acceptance.
Early Models of the Universe
The document summarizes several historical models of the universe:
1) Eudoxus of Cnidus proposed a geocentric model in the 4th century BC with concentric spheres and the first systematic explanation of planetary motion.
2) Aristotle also proposed a geocentric model, believing Earth was stationary at the center and composed of four elements.
3) Aristarchus proposed the first heliocentric model in the 3rd century BC, placing the Sun at the center with the Earth and planets orbiting it.
4) Ptolemy proposed a refined geocentric model in the 2nd century AD explaining planetary motions with epicycles and deferents.
5) Copernicus published his he
CA 3.04 Heliocentrism
Philolaus in the 5th century BC speculated that the Earth and planets revolved daily around a central fire or sun at the center of the universe, making him one of the first to propose a non-geocentric model. Heraclides Ponticus in the 4th century BC proposed that the Earth rotates daily and developed one of the first solar system models, though it was still geocentric. Aristarchus of Samos in the 3rd century BC was the first known ancient Greek thinker to explicitly propose a heliocentric model, with the Sun at the center and the Earth and planets in circular orbits around it. However, his theory gained little traction at the time due to the dominant ge
Heliocentric model
The document discusses the development of the heliocentric theory from Aristotle to Galileo. It began with Aristarchus proposing a heliocentric model over 2000 years ago, though the geocentric Ptolemaic system remained dominant. Nicolaus Copernicus later revived the heliocentric theory in the 16th century, providing a simplified mathematical model. Johannes Kepler further developed the theory through his laws of planetary motion. Galileo Galilei then provided strong observational evidence in favor of heliocentrism through his telescopic discoveries. The heliocentric theory fundamentally changed astronomical and scientific understanding.
Copernican revolution modern
- Newton united physics and astronomy through his laws of motion and law of gravitation.
- Henrietta Swann Leavitt discovered the relationship between the variable period of stars and their absolute brightness, enabling the determination of distances in the universe.
- Edwin Hubble observed Cepheid variables in the Andromeda Nebula, proving that it was actually another galaxy, demonstrating that the universe is larger than previously believed.
Copernican revolution
This document summarizes the Copernican Revolution in astronomy from the 15th century to Isaac Newton in the 17th century. It describes the geocentric Ptolemaic model that was widely accepted, then introduces Copernicus' heliocentric model which placed the Sun at the center. Tycho Brahe made highly accurate observations that Kepler used to develop his three laws of planetary motion and elliptical orbits. Galileo's telescope discoveries of craters on the Moon, sunspots, Jupiter's moons, and Venus' phases supported the Copernican model. Finally, Newton developed his laws of motion and law of universal gravitation, explaining Kepler's laws and proving the heliocentric model.
Ptolemy and the Geocentric Model

CA 3.07 Galileo's Telescope
The introduction of the telescope into astronomy by Galileo. Discovered the orbits of Jupiter's moons and the phases of Venus. Evidences for heliocentrism.
CA 3.06 Kepler's Elliptical Orbits
Kepler improved the Copernican theory by changing the circular orbits of the planets into elliptical ones.
CA 3.01 Ancient Cosmology
1. Many ancient cultures believed the universe originated from primordial waters or chaos. The Babylonians, Egyptians, and Israelites described the early cosmos emerging from water.
2. In ancient cosmologies, the earth was often thought to be a flat disk floating on water, surrounded by a dome-shaped sky. The sky was believed to separate the upper waters from the lower waters and earth.
3. Creation myths from these cultures generally involved creator gods bringing order from the initial chaos of waters. For example, the Babylonian god Marduk killed Tiamat and organized the cosmos from her body.
Astronomy presentation
a presentatio for astronomy it has information on history and the different astronomer that contribute best to astronomy.
History Of Astronomy
1) Astrology claims personality and life are determined by star and planet positions at birth, but lacks scientific evidence.
2) Ancient Greeks first tried explaining natural events without gods. Ptolemy reasoned Earth was the center of the universe, an idea accepted for 1500 years due to visual appearance.
3) Copernicus found evidence for a sun-centered solar system, upsetting many. Kepler used Tycho Brahe's data to discover elliptical orbits and laws of planetary motion.
Helio vs geo 2
No, the Sun is not the center of the Universe. The Copernican model established that the Earth and planets orbit the Sun, but the Sun is just one star among billions in the Milky Way galaxy, which itself is one of trillions of galaxies in the observable universe.
Early Astronomers
The document provides an overview of cosmological theories and astronomers throughout history. It discusses Ptolemy's geocentric model, Aristarchus and Copernicus proposing heliocentric models, Tycho Brahe's observations, Galileo discovering Jupiter's moons and sunspots, Kepler's laws of planetary motion, Newton's law of universal gravitation, Gamow's Big Bang theory, Hubble confirming other galaxies, the steady state theory, and old earth creation theory accepting the age of the Earth but questioning evolution.
The Origin of Modern Astronomy
Astronomy is the oldest of the natural sciences, dating back to antiquity, with its origins in the religious, mythological, cosmological, calendrical, and astrological beliefs and practices of pre-history: vestiges of these are still found in astrology, a discipline long interwoven with public and governmental astronomy, and not completely disentangled from it until a few centuries ago in the Western World (see astrology and astronomy). In some cultures, astronomical data was used for astrological prognostication.
Ancient astronomers were able to differentiate between stars and planets, as stars remain relatively fixed over the centuries while planets will move an appreciable amount during a comparatively short time.
CA 3.03 Geocentre
Greek philosophers first proposed that the Earth was spherical and located at the center of the universe, with celestial bodies orbiting in perfect circular motions around it (geocentric model). This view was established by Aristotle and became dominant, as it was consistent with observations and the idea that humans inhabited the most important planet. Ptolemy further developed the geocentric model in his influential Almagest, employing epicycles to explain planetary motions. This geocentric view of the universe dominated Western thought for over 14 centuries.
Early model of the Universe
The document discusses early models of the universe including the ideas that the Earth was flat and then spherical. It describes models from Greek philosophers like Aristotle who believed the Earth was at the center of the universe and surrounded by spheres carrying the planets and stars. Later models from Copernicus, Brahe and Kepler placed the Sun at the center with Earth and other planets orbiting around it, moving astronomy toward a heliocentric understanding of the solar system.
How the greeks knew that the earth is

Space Exploration
The document discusses the history and arguments for and against space exploration. It outlines the key events in space exploration history from Sputnik 1 to the first moon landing. Both the dangers and high costs of space travel are presented as counter arguments, while supporting arguments note the technological benefits and spin-offs, curiosity of humankind, and new opportunities space exploration provides. The conclusion recommends that future space systems focus on reducing costs and improving safety, and developing useful technologies to benefit people.

SPACE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY FOR MANKIND
The space age started with the launch of first Russian satellite Sputnik 1 on 4 October 1957.Ever since,the rocket powered launch vehicles carried state of the art scientific equipment to explore moon , the sun , solar system and the cosmos. This resulted in designing and fabricating the instruments having more than 6000000 components with reliability greater than 99.9999%. In 1960s man landed on moon and in 1970s the planetary exploration continued the space march. The comet Halley, which orbits the sun in about 76 years was photographed from a distance of about 500 kms in the year 1986. The success of launch and recovery of Space Shuttle made the space just another location in 1980s. This opened a variety of new vistas of science and technology.

How far is thr road to the moon
This document summarizes the history of space exploration, beginning with early experiments with rockets and satellites in the 20th century. It discusses key events like the launch of Sputnik 1, the founding of NASA, and the first missions that sent animals (dogs) into space to test the viability of life support systems before human spaceflight. The overall goal of space exploration is discussed - to answer fundamental questions about what exists in space and how resources there could benefit life on Earth, while better understanding our planet and solar system through observation and research beyond our atmosphere.
Sci am special online issue 2002.no04 - the search for alien life
Scientists have been searching for signs of extraterrestrial intelligence through techniques like scanning the heavens for radio signals and studying planets and moons in our solar system for signs of life. While discoveries of water on Mars and the possibility of a subsurface ocean on Europa have intensified the search within our solar system, searches have yet to find any conclusive evidence of life beyond Earth. The lack of detections from radio searches and the absence of evidence that aliens have visited Earth presents what is known as the Fermi Paradox - if intelligent life is common, where is the evidence of it? While the searches have only covered a small parameter space so far, initial results are beginning to place limits on the prevalence of advanced civilizations in the
Space Race Presentation With Works Cited[1]
The document discusses the early history of rocketry pioneers Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, Robert Goddard, and Hermann Oberth, who conducted experiments in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It then covers the Space Race between the US and USSR during the Cold War, which began with the Soviet Union's launch of Sputnik in 1957 and ended with the US landing on the moon in 1969. The Space Race accelerated technological advances and helped launch the modern space age, but also increased fears and paranoia that contributed to UFO conspiracy theories and sci-fi culture.
The conspiracy theories about moon landing in College english
The document discusses conspiracy theories that claim the 1969 moon landing was faked. It outlines some of the major claims of conspiracy theorists, such as flags waving in the moon's lack of wind and unusual shadows in photos. The document also summarizes NASA's responses to debunk each claim, including explanations for flag movement, radiation risks, lack of stars in photos, and distorted shadows. While NASA and third-party evidence supports the moon landing, some polls show 6-20% of Americans and 28% of Russians still believe the landing was faked due to doubts about the technological capabilities and political context of the space race at that time.
The Gameplay called Moon Voyage and the truth behind it
The document discusses skepticism around the moon landings and proposes an alternative theory. It questions how the astronauts could have survived the conditions on the moon given its lack of atmosphere and extreme temperatures. It also raises doubts about how the landings were filmed without advanced satellites. The author believes the moon voyages have coincided with conflicts harming Muslim populations, suggesting they may have been orchestrated to provoke such events.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI support
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex Proofs
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
